GCP Foundations

Projects, Identity, and the Google Cloud Mental Model

By Yuki Tanabe

Google CloudFoundationalArchitectureCertification

GCP makes more sense than its reputation suggests, provided you learn the resource hierarchy before anything else. Projects are not folders; they are the unit of isolation, billing, and quota all at once.

This book starts there and builds outward through identity, the global network, and the core compute and storage services, with the goal of leaving you able to read Google's own documentation productively.

What you'll learn

  • Internalize the organization/folder/project hierarchy and what each unit isolates
  • Configure identity and service accounts without over-granting
  • Understand the global network model from the start
  • Read Google's documentation productively on your own
